2021 March Madness Predictions


Did you miss me and the madness? I did. But we're back in business with more predictions than ever before! This year there are 4 March Madness competitions on Kaggle. We still have the traditional competitions where you predict the probabilities for all the possible games in the men's and women's tournaments (see this demo to understand scoring). Then there's another couple of competitions where you predict the spread. I assume I won't do as well in the latter because it's a bit of an afterthought. But that's probably the case for most of the competitors so why not give it a try?
